Sparkling Peach Sangria
Description
This sangria recipe starts by mixing sliced peaches and raspberries with Pinot Grigio wine, simple syrup, and peach schnapps in a large pitcher. The mixture chills for at least an hour to allow the fruit flavors to meld with the alcohol, creating a harmonious fruit wine blend. Serving involves scooping fruit into wine glasses, filling halfway with the sangria base, and topping off with chilled champagne to add sparkling bubbles that brighten the drink.
The fresh fruit adds texture and natural sweetness that complement the wine and schnapps. Raspberries provide slight tartness while peaches contribute juicy sweetness. Simple syrup balances the wine's acidity. The peach schnapps enhances the peach flavor without overpowering the sangria.
This beverage suits warm weather occasions or celebrations where a lighter, fruity cocktail is preferred. Using frozen fruit as a substitution can be convenient when fresh fruit is out of season. Making simple syrup at home from equal parts sugar and water heated until dissolved ensures control over sweetness.
Ingredients
- 3 cups peach sliced
- 2 cups raspberry
- 750 mL Pinot Grigio wine
- 1 cup simple syrup (see note)
- 1 cup Peach Schnapps
- 750 mL champagne
Instructions
- Add the sliced peaches and raspberries to a large pitcher.
- Pour in the wine, simple syrup, and peach schnapps. Stir to combine.
- Chill the fridge for at least 1 hour to overnight.
- To serve: Add some fruit from the pitcher into a wine glass. Fill the glass halfway with sangria and then the rest of the way with champagne. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Frozen peaches and raspberries can be used if fresh are unavailable or out of season.
- Homemade simple syrup is made by heating equal parts water and sugar until sugar dissolves, then cooled completely before use.
